I think Python uses odbc to communicate with MS SQL like most non MS languages. Nothing bad about that but it is an extra layer of software. Since I suspect that once your actual database is developed and the day to day updating and maintenance is figured out what you will mostly be doing is queries. So, creating a tool in Python to do the routine stuff and using some other tool or multiple tools for the queries may make sense. Access forms may be just the ticket but lots of other options are available.
